TED Talk Prep- Day 6

4/1/2019

 
Guidelines for RE-Submission of your Senior Thesis:
Once you have received your final grade for your paper, you will have the option to rewrite it based on my comments.  Your revised paper grade will REPLACE your original grade.  In order for your re-submission to be accepted, you must follow the guidelines below exactly. 

  • Deadline: Whatever it says in the comment you received when I shared the rubric with you!
  • Email/share with me your revised draft
  • Submit your digital revised draft together with both your previous draft and the graded rubric (put your old draft and rubric in my inbox).
  • Your final draft must demonstrate improvement between drafts
  • I will not be commenting on revised drafts, and the revised grade will replace your original grade
  • Important: Annotations on your final draft  are REQUIRED.  Feel free to highlight, underline, comment, or draw arrows to specific points made, new evidence used, new phrasing etc.  Your final grade depends in a large part on your ability to show growth between drafts in the categories I have outlined in the rubric.  Make it easy for me to see this growth with your annotations.  Even better if your comments are coded to rubric categories.  Annotate as you revise to make this easier on yourself!

Senior Project Cohort Review
  1. See the letter linked above for expectations and structure for Senior Project Cohort.  Kyle will explain further in class today!
  2. Senior Project Cohort Groups- We are trying to group you into cohort groups based on the type of project you are planning on doing.  Please look at this document, and make sure your name/project are in here in the correct category.  Check with someone if you are not sure where you should go!

TED Talk Publicity
Share this with your friends!  Do it right now!


TED Talk Critiques
Follow the protocol linked above, which is also in your packet of TED Prep materials.  You should complete two critiques today, and two tomorrow.  Prioritize people going early in the presentation schedule!

Revision and Practice
When you finish your critiques for the day, work on revising your TED Talk and practicing.  Seriously, PRACTICE.  This is key to success!


HOMEWORK:
Practice your TED Talk!  We are looking for polished and professional here.  Make sure you are engaging, and that you are communicating complex ideas in an interesting way.
